Suggest Treatment For Persistent Vomiting And Diarrhea In An Infant
My son (22 months) is suffering from acute diarrhea. Doctor gave 1 ml grandem empty stomach to stop vomitting. I gave him yesterday morning, it worked for 15 hours and then again he started vomiting even after hvng water. I again gave 1ml grandem very late night yesterday. Please advise how long will it take to stop vomit completely since now it is jst because of medicine, few hours pass by. He is on other antibiotics for loose stools. I am so worried as he is hot acute diarrhea for teh second time in last 25 days. Thanks a lot.
As per your query your child have symptoms of persistent vomiting and diarrhea which seems to be due to electrolyte imbalance in body leading to acute gastritis. I would suggest you to give child liquid diet for few days to rehydrate body. You can take banana on daily basis and light food. You should avoid taking dairy products in excess.
Avoid hot, sharp and spicy food. Visit gastroenterologist once and get it examined and start treatment after complete examination. You should get intravenous fluid administration as well.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari, Dentist
